Base64 Converter

Overview

Encode plain text to Base64 or decode Base64 back to readable text. Choose standard Base64 or URL-safe Base64, include or omit encode padding, and use it for quick developer checks, API snippets, tokens, and copied data.

Best for

• Encoding and decoding plain text.
• Working with URL-safe Base64 tokens and query parameters.
• Choosing whether encoded output keeps padding.
• Checking API examples and copied snippets.
• Fast browser-local developer utility work.

Not for

• Encryption or secure storage.
• Binary file conversion unless explicitly supported by the tool UI.

How it works

1. Choose standard Base64 or URL-safe Base64.
2. Choose encode padding behavior if you are encoding.
3. Paste the text.
4. Copy the converted result.

Limits and privacy

Base64 is an encoding format, not encryption. This tool handles text snippets, not binary file conversion. Do not treat encoded text as private or secure.

Common uses

• Encode a text snippet to Base64.
• Decode a Base64 value while debugging.
• Create URL-safe Base64 without padding for a token or URL parameter.
• Check copied API examples without opening a terminal.
